⚡ Setup

⚙️ Requirements

Before you begin, ensure you have met the following requirements:

• You have installed the latest version of neovim

• Some command line tools: fd, ripgrep

• The Python provider is necessary for wilder.nvim.

  • Install it using pip install neovim, and then run :UpdateRemotePlugins in Neovim.

• To use nvim2k for notes, take a look at tdo.nvim

For plugin configs you can place them in these folders based on the functionality:

• lang: Plugins related to language features, completions, lsp, debugging etc.
• tools: General purpose tool plugins that aid in the editing experience.
• ui: Cosmetic plugins that make neovim pretty.

⌨️ Keybindings

Find the keybinding manual here.

If you want to change functionality of a core keybinding, edit core/keys

To add new keybindings edit the which-key config

🎨 User Configs

nvim2k supports a user module where you can store your custom configs, these will always override the default configs, whenever there is a clash.

To use custom configs create the file lua/user/init.lua, you can structure your configs as you like there.

lua/user/init.lua must be present to load custom configs, require any custom modules in this file.

user module is not part of the repo, you can set up user module as a separate git repository while continuously receiving nvim2k updates.

🤖 Auto Install

By default nvim2k will auto install a set of LSP servers and null-ls sources using mason, if you want to disable it make sure to add the following to your user module.

-- lua/user/init.lua
local user = {
    auto_install = true,
}

return user

To setup and access other user options you can use the get_user_config(key, default) method in lib.util

Example: local auto_install = require('lib.util').get_user_value('auto_install', true)
